Every evening this week we've been taking our 2 year old cocker spaniel down to a stream in a forest for him to chase stones and cool off. We've never seen anyone else down there before.
This evening, as he was playing, a man and a woman walked out of the woods towards us, both smoking (don't know if the smell is relevant). They took me by surprise but didn't startle me. Our dog ran up to them both barking and growled at them. We called him and he came away. About 10 minutes later another family came along. The lady walked right past our dog and he barked once at her.
Acceptable behaviour or something to be mindful of when he's off lead around people in the future?
